Well, finally did it. I went ahead and published my first ever novella “Skin, Blood and Sediment”. It is a vampire novella; the first chapter sample is below. Here is the link: Amazon.com: Skin, Blood and Sediment: A Vampire Story: Nocturium Universe eBook : Mervox, H.A. : Kindle Store .
At the moment I am working on a novel based on a gentleman explorer named Lord Beaumont. If anyone has heard of the SCP Foundation’s Lord Blackwood, it’s of a similar nature. Although based on the Nocturium Universe. It was originally going to be a serialized character for a podcast, but due to being guilted into not using AI, I just went ahead and decided to write this myself (100% human) and turn it into a novel.
After that I start writing “The Blood Road” which is the second book of the Skin, Blood and Sediment character arc of Daniel/Theo. The Goal is to finish “”Skin, Blood and Sediment” “The Blood Road” by the end of the summer with the third novella “The Veins of the Earth” by the End of the year. All three novellas will be available on Amazon via Kindle Direct Publishing or Kindle Unlimited. Once I’m finished with all three, my hope is to combine all three stories and turn them into one novel. I’m hoping to use any profits, along with some savings to hire a human editor to improve the manuscript.
I may try to send the manuscript to a few agents to see if I get any interest, if not then I’ll publish it myself.
The goal is to eventually get to the point where I have enough inventory to start my own podcast, but that’s been put in the back burner for a while. I want twelve original stories to start the podcast and I’m nowhere near that many just yet.
Anyways, let me know if you have any questions, suggestions. Thanks for reading!
